Reminiscent of your favourite countryside bistro pub, our Cantilever Parasol can be set up anywhere – such as over your garden dining set or bistro set – to keep you cool and shaded throughout the day. Setting the umbrella up and down is simply a matter of turning the hand crank, allowing you to switch between shade and sun exposure in a matter of seconds. Please note that the umbrella should be kept closed in harmful weather conditions such as strong winds or heavy rain. Please do not leave the parasol up overnight as unforeseen or unpredictable weather could cause damage to the product. Weights are not included with this product.
